Answer:
$188
Explanation:
FIFO method assumes that the units to arrive first will be sold first. Hence the cost of sales will be valued using the prices of earlier or older units.
Cost of Sales = 16 units x $24 + 6 units x $26
= $188
Thus, the cost of the 22 units that are sold is $188.
The balance in a company's Cash account on August 31 was $18,800 before the bank reconciliation was prepared. After examining the August bank statement and items included with it, the company's accountant found: Checks outstanding $ 3,300 NSF check 110 Note collected by bank for the Colt Company 1,650 Deposits outstanding 2,800 Bank service fees 220 What is the amount of cash that should be reported in the balance sheet as of August 31
Answer:
$20,340
Explanation:
The amount of cash to be recognize is the adjusted amount after considering the transactions that were omitted from the bank statement and cash book and properly recognizing the erroneous entries into the two books.
Considering the reconciling items,
Checks outstanding $ 3,300 - This has been recognized in the company's Cash account and as such need no adjustment in the company's books
NSF check 110 - This has been deducted from the company's cash book but was not honored by the bank as such, it will be added back to the company's cash book balance
Note collected by bank for the Colt Company 1,650 - This has been recognized by the bank and as such will be added to the company's cash book balance
Deposits outstanding 2,800 - This has been recognized in the company's Cash account and as such need no adjustment in the company's books.
Bank service fees 220 - This has been recognized by the bank and as such will be deducted as a charge to the company's cash book balance
Hence the amount of cash that should be reported in the balance sheet as of August 31 will be
= $18,800 + $110 + $1650 - $220
= $20,340

The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) has authority to establish which of the following relating to public companies?
Attestation Standards Independence Standards
A. Yes Yes
B. Yes No
C. No Yes
D. No No
a. Option A
b. Option B
c. Option C
d. Option D
Answer: a. Option A
Explanation:
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) was formed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in the aftermath of the disastrous accounting policies of companies like WorldCom and Enron in the early 2000s to protect investors from such happening again.
The PCAOB monitors companies to ensure that they are complying by the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and do so by coming up with both attestation and independence standards that these companies are to adhere to.
When interest is compounded continuously, the amount of money increases at a rate proportional to the amount S present at time t, that is, dS/dt=rS, where r is the annual rate of interest.
a) Find the amount of money accrued at the end of 5 years when $6000 is deposited in a savings account drawing 534% annual interest compounded continuously. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
b) In how many years will the initial sum deposited have doubled? (Round your answer to the nearest year.)
c) Use a calculator to compare the amount obtained in part a) with the amount S=6000(1+14(0.0575))5(4) that is accrued when interest is compounded quarterly. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Given that;
A = P(1 + r/n)^nt
Where;
P= $6000
r = 5 3/4%
t = 5 years
n= 1
A = 6000(1 + 0.0575)^5
A= $ 7935
b) What time will A become $12,000
12000 = 6000(1 + 0.0575)^t
12000/6000 = (1 + 0.0575)^t
2 = (1 + 0.0575)^t
Take logarithm of both sides
log2 = t log(1 + 0.0575)
t= log2/log(1 + 0.0575)
t= 0.3010/0.0243
t = 12 years
c) when compounded quarterly;
S= 6000(1 + 1/4(0.0575))^(5)(4)
S= $7982
The amount when interest is compounded quarterly is higher than when it is compounded annually because the interest increases as the number of compounding periods increases.

Operating expenses 55,240 53,240
Net earnings 27,820 19,820
Answer:
Year 1 56%
Year 2 55%
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the Year 1 and Year 2 common size percentages for cost of goods sold using Net sales as the base.
Year 1
Using this formula
Common size percentage for cost of goods sold for year 1 = Cost of good sold/Net sales
Let plug in the formula
Common size percentage for cost of goods sold for year 1= 129,590/231,400
Common size percentage for cost of goods sold for year 1= 56%
Year 2
Using this formula
Common size percentage for cost of goods sold for year 2 = Cost of good sold/Net sales
Let plug in the formula
Common size percentage for cost of goods sold for year 2 = 151,900/276,200
Common size percentage for cost of goods sold for year 2 = 55%
Therefore the Year 1 and Year 2 common size percentages for cost of goods sold using Net sales as the base is :Year 1 56% and Year 2 55%

Assume that Zonk is a potential leveraged buyout candidate. Assume that the buyer intends to put in place a capital structure that has 70 percent debt with a pretax borrowing cost of 14 percent and 30 percent common equity. Compute the revised equity beta for Zonk based on the new capital structure.
Answer: 4.35
Explanation:
The revised equity beta for Zonk based on the new capital structure will be gotten as follows:
= 1.13 × [1 + (1 - 35%)][70% /30%]
= 1.13 × [1+(1-0.35)][0.70/0.30]
= 1.13 × [1 + 0.65][2.33]
= 1.13 × (1.65)(2.33)
= 4.35
Therefore, the revised equity beta for Zonk is 4.35.

Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Sales units = 1,000,000
Selling price = $188
Total
Sales $188,000,000
Cost of goods sold (100,000,000)
Variable cost of goods sold = $70,000,000
Fixed cost of goods sold = $30,000,000
Gross profit $88,000,000
Expenses:
Selling expenses $16,000,000
Variable selling expenses $12,000,000
Fixed selling expense = $4,000,000
Administrative expenses 12,000,000
Variable administrative expenses = $6,000,000
Fixed administrative expenses = $6,000,000
Total expenses (28,000,000)
Operating income $60,000,000
The division of costs between variable and fixed is as follows:
Variable Fixed
Cost of goods sold 70% 30%
Selling expenses 75% 25%
Administrative expenses 50% 50%
Total Unit Cost
Variable cost of goods sold = $70,000,000 $70
Variable selling expenses 12,000,000 12
Variable administrative expenses 6,000,000 6
Total variable costs = $88,000,000 $88
Contribution margin = $100 ($188 - $88)
Fixed cost of goods sold = $30,000,000
Fixed selling expense = 4,000,000
Fixed administrative expenses = 6,000,000
Total fixed costs = $40,000,000
Break-even sales units = $40,000,000/$100 = 400,000 units
Proposal:
Sales revenue increase = $11,280,000
Fixed costs by $5,000,000 to $45,000,000 ($40 million + $5 million)
Sales units increase = 60,000 ($11,280,000/$188)
Break-even sales units = 450,000 ($45,000,000/$100)
Units to realize target profit of $60,000,000:
= ($45,000,000 + $60,000,000)/$100
= $105,000,000/$100
= 1,050,000,000 units
Profit with the expanded plan
= Total contribution - Fixed Costs
= $100 * 1,060,000 - $45,000,000
= $106,000,000 - $45,000,000
= $61,000,000
With sales at current level of 1,000,000 units
Sales revenue = $188,000,000
Variable costs 88,000,000
Contribution $100,000,000
Fixed costs 45,000,000
Operating income $55,000,000
K Company estimates that overhead costs for the next year will be $3,441,000 for indirect labor and $930,000 for factory utilities. The company uses direct labor hours as its overhead allocation base. If 93,000 direct labor hours are planned for this next year, how much overhead would be assigned to a product requiring 5 direct labor hours
Answer:
$235.00
Explanation:
Calculation to determine how much overhead would be assigned to a product requiring 5 direct labor hours
Overhead assigned to direct labor hours=[($3,441,000 + $930,000)/93000 direct labor hours]*5 direct labor hours
Overhead assigned to direct labor hours=($4,371,000/93,000)* 5 direct labor hours
Overhead assigned to direct labor hours= $47 per direct labor hour* 5 direct labor hours
Overhead assigned to direct labor hours= $235.00
Therefore how much overhead would be assigned to a product requiring 5 direct labor hours will be $235
An employee on the Internet-facing part of a company's website submits a 20-character phrase in a small textbox on a web form. The website returns a message back to the browser stating Error: Table 'advprofile' entry into column 'Inane' has exceeded number of allowed characters. Error saving database information. Of which of the following is this an example?
A. Resource exhaustion
B. Buffer overflow
C. Improperly configured account Improper error handing
Answer:
(B) Buffer Overflow
Explanation:
The description in the question is an example of a Buffer Overflow. This is also called a Buffer Overrun.
As the question depicts, the employee input more characters than was required in the text box. The text box was programmed to allow a more limited number of characters; maybe 15, 12, 18, etc but not up to 20.
A buffer is a storage space that holds data temporarily while it's being transported to a new space. An overrun on the buffer will occur if or when the inputed data exceeds the storage capacity of the buffer.
This overrun can cause the program to crash or access errors to develop; like the errors displayed in the question.

Trent Inc. needs an additional worker on a multiyear project. It could hire an employee for a $88,000 annual salary. Alternatively, it could engage an independent contractor for a $95,000 annual fee. Trent's income tax rate is 21 percent. Required: Compute the annual after-tax cost of each option and indicate which minimizes the after-tax cost of obtaining the worker
Answer: The cheaper cost is to hire an additional worker.
Explanation:
Employee:
With an employee, Trent is going to have to pay payroll taxes.
After-tax cost of hiring employee:
= Salary * (1 + Payroll tax)
= 88,000 * ( 1 + 7.5%)
= $94,600
The subtract the income tax from this amount:
= 94,600 * ( 1 - 21%)
= $74,734
Contractor:
With a contractor, only the marginal income tax is accounted for:
= 95,000 * (1 - 21%)
= $75,050
The cheaper cost is to hire an additional worker.

Answer:
Fredonia Barber Shop
a. Variable costs per haircut = $4.40
Total monthly fixed costs = $8,910
b. Break-even point in units = 1,350
Break-even point in sales dollars = $14,850
Net income with 1,670 haircuts = $2,120
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Fixed costs:
Wages of barbers per month = $6,900 ($1,380 * 5)
Manager's allowance per month = $535
Advertising per month = $270
Rent per month = $1,010
Utilities per month = $160
Magazines per month = $35
Total fixed costs per month = $8,910
Ivanhoe currently charges $11 per haircut.
Variable costs per haircut:
Commission per haircut = $3.75
Barber supplies per haircut = $0.50
Utilities per haircut = $0.15
Total variable costs per unit $4.40
Contribution margin per haircut = $6.60 ($11 - $4.40)
Contribution margin ratio = 0.6
Break-even point in units = $8,910/$6.60 = 1,350
Break-even point in sales dollars = $8,910/0.6 = $14,850
Net income assuming 1,670 haircuts for a month:
Sales revenue = $18,370 ($11 * 1,670)
Variable costs = 7,340 ($4.40 * 1,670)
Contribution $11,030
Fixed costs 8,910
Net income $2,120
Country A and Country B have had an informal trading arrangement for many years wherein merchants on the border of the countries may freely trade goods without the restriction of fees. Which of the following is true?
a. The government of Country A may not arbitrarily begin to charge fees for items brought in from Country B.
b. Country A and Country B have a binding agreement to this arrangement under customary international law.
c. Country A and Country B have no binding agreement under customary international law.
d. More than one response is correct.
Answer:
d. More than one response is correct.
Explanation:
Even though international law does not follow common law, and informal agreements are not enforceable between countries, they tend to facilitate the relationship between them. For example, Canada and the US do not have a strict border patrol and no one is asking for a wall to be built on the Canadian border. It is accepted that US and Canadian citizens cross almost freely as tourists. If someone tried to enforce a strong border policy, the other government would oppose it and it would turn into a diplomatic mess and would probably not be enforceable at all.

Rita managed a group of financial advisors. She decided to let her employees set their own goals for an appraisal period. She thought they would be more motivated to reach goals they had defined for themselves. Which theory below does this scenario illustrate? Management By Objectives Expectancy Theory Participative Management and Empowerment Goal Setting Theory
Answer:
The correct answer is the third option: Participative Management
Explanation:
To begin with, in the field of business management the concept known as "Participative Management" refers to the process of giving a great involvement to the employees of the company when it comes to deciding things or goals so they will be more involved in completing those goals effectively. This type of management is used as an alternative to traditional vertical management structures and that is basically for the direct defect that the PM strikes.

If the margin of safety for Canace Company was 25%, fixed costs were $1,419,375, and variable costs were 75% of sales, what was the amount of actual sales (dollars)? (Hint: Determine the break-even in sales dollars first.) $fill in the blank 3
Answer:
Canace Company
a-1) Margin of safety is:
= $256,500.
a-2) Margin of safety is:
= 55%.
b) The amount of actual sales is:
= $5,677,500.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Break-even point sales = $313,500
Actual sales = $570,000
Margin of safety = $256,500 ($570,000 - $313,500)
Margin of safety as a percentage of sales = 55% ($313,500/$570,000 * 100)
2) Margin of safety = 25%
Fixed costs = $1,419,375
Break-even point in sales dollars = $1,419,375
Variable costs = 75% of sales
Contribution margin at break-even point = 25% (100% - 75%) = $1,419,375
Actual sales in dollars = $5,677,500 ($1,419,375/25%)
Saturation of domestic markets in the industrialized parts of the world has forced many companies to look for marketing opportunities beyond their _______________.
Answer:
national borders.
Explanation:
Globalization can be defined as the strategic process which involves the integration of various markets across the world to form a large global marketplace.
Basically, globalization makes it possible for various organizations to produce goods and services that is used by consumers across the world.
On a related note, the saturation of domestic (local) markets in the industrialized parts of the world has forced many companies into searching for better marketing opportunities beyond their national borders or shores of their country.
This ultimately implies that, as a result of having too many businesses in domestic (local) markets, many businesses have looked outwardly in search of better marketing opportunities by exporting their goods and services to foreign countries.
Export typically involves the sales of goods produced in a domestic country to a foreign country.
During its first month of operations, Purrfect Pets purchased 5,100 bags of dog food at a cost of $7 a bag and sold all 5,100 bags of dog food on account with payment terms of 1/10, n/30 for $11 each. A total of 2,100 of these bags were sold to customers who paid within the discount period; the other customers paid after the discount period had ended. Sales allowances totaling $220 were granted to customers whose dogs did not like the dog food. Required: Calculate the gross profit for the month. Calculate the gross profit percentage for the month.
Answer:
Purrfect Pets
The gross profit for the month is:
= $20,180.
The gross profit percentage for the month is:
= 36.11%.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Quantity of dog food purchased = 5,100 bags
Cost per bag = $7
Quantity of dog food sold = 5,100 bags
Sales price per bag = $11
Sales revenue $56,100 ($5,100 * $11)
Less Sales allowances 220
Net Sales $55,880
Cost of goods (dog food) sold 35,700 (5,100 *$7)
Gross profit $20,180
Discounts (2,100 * $11 * 1%) 231
Net operating income $19,949
Gross profit percentage = Gross profit/Net Sales * 100
= $20,180/$55,880 * 100
= 36.11%

Increased demand for bonds tends to reduce the yield from holding bonds.
Answer:
Bonds have an inverse relationship to interest rates. When the cost of borrowing money rises (when interest rates rise), bond prices usually fall, and vice-versa.
At first glance, the negative correlation between interest rates and bond prices seems somewhat illogical. However, upon closer examination, it actually begins to make good sense.
